Summer Street Capital Partners
About Summer Street Capital Partners
Summer Street invests equity capital alongside talented and committed leaders who share our values and entrepreneurial spirit.
We ensure that key managers have a meaningful equity interest in the business and share in its success. Our portfolio company managers would tell you that by leveraging our experience, networks, and operational resources, they were better prepared to achieve ambitious growth goals.
Our equity capital typically supports buyout transactions, growth financing, recapitalizations, family transitions, and corporate divestitures.
We have found that an equity partnership works best when we are able to bring more than just dollars to the table.
We consider diverse industries, but have a particular interest in sectors where our years of operating experience enable us to serve as a source of ideas and connections.
The environmental services sector is of particular focus and commitment. For nearly 25 years, we have successfully partnered with business owners and entrepreneurs to transform private waste companies into regional leaders across multiple geographic regions.
Investment Preferences
We consider companies of many shapes and sizes, but are most excited to partner with companies that meet the following criteria. We also seek add-on acquisitions for our portfolio companies, where these criteria can be more flexible.
